The 52 Activation Points in ONE Team provide you and your team with a yearlong framework to activate inspired teamwork, in just a few minutes. The topics covered in the Activation Points are rich in content, with unique questions that follow each point providing “the how” to activate one-team performance.

We climb high peaks (and enter a few toxic arenas), stumble sleep-deprived through airports on six continents, endure knee-crushing seats on crowded planes, and get home long after our loved ones have gone to bed.

When people do so, they realize their brilliant potential.
